Start an engine

To start an engine, the status of the platform that hosts the engine must be Running On Scan and the engine’s Start Up mode must also be configured to Manual Start. You can verify the engine’s configuration from the IDE.

If the engine’s Start Up mode is configured to Auto Start, then the platform starts the engine in the last checkpointed scan state. Engines configured in the Semi Auto Start mode start in the Off Scan state.

To start an engine

1. From the details pane, right-click the engine, and then select Start Engine.

   The Startup Engine dialog box appears.

   

2. Select Off Scan or On Scan.

3. Select OK to set the engine’s startup scan state.

   The engine begins to start and its status changes from Shutdown to Starting Off Scan or Starting On Scan. After the engine starts successfully, its status changes from Starting Off Scan or Starting On Scan to Running Off Scan or Running On Scan.
